Capturing Life’s Moments, Framing Your Story

I’m Tamanna Mahey—a photographer, cinematographer, and event curator based in Vancouver. With a background in studio photography and a passion for storytelling, I’ve spent years honing my eye for light, emotion, and composition. Whether it’s the joy of a wedding day, the energy of a live event, or the stillness of a landscape, I bring an empathetic, cinematic approach to every project. Let’s create visuals that resonate long after the moment has passed.

Wedding Photography

Your wedding day unfolds in hundreds of heartfelt moments—stolen glances, smiles, tears, laughter. I blend documentary-style candids with artful portraiture to capture the true essence of your celebration.

Event Photography

From milestone birthdays to graduation ceremonies, I navigate the ebb and flow of your event with discretion and creativity. My goal is to preserve the atmosphere, energy, and key interactions that make your gathering unique.

Cinematography

Motion brings a new dimension to storytelling. I direct, shoot, and edit short films, promotional reels, and event highlight videos—combining dynamic camera work, thoughtful pacing, and evocative soundtracks to immerse your audience.

Lights, camera, action—let’s make your story pop! Whether it’s a snappy promo reel, an epic brand tale, or a highlight-packed event video, I bring the fun with gimbal glides, drone swoops, and storyboard magic.

Modelling & Portrait Sessions

Whether you’re building a fashion portfolio or seeking headshots that stand out, I craft a collaborative environment on location. Together, we’ll develop images that reflect your personality, style, and ambition.
